Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A probable pin manufactured from cast copper alloy. The object has a flattened disc-like terminal decorated with two raised horizontal lines, the shaft is rectangular in section around the middle, tapering to a point. This object may be part of a brooch fastening, or used for securing clothing. Broadly similar examples, also from Lincolnshire, may be found on this database including NCL-DOCEC4. That particular example has been identified as an early medieval pin, dating from the 8th-9th centuries.

Object type: WEIGHT
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Lead possible weight. Cast irregularly conical weight with off-centre longitudinal aperture of diameter 5mm. At the broader end the aperture is surrounded by an oval hollow of length 10mm, revealed by removal of fine red sandy soil. The mass of the object may relate it to Scandinavian-derived units of circa 24.4gms (plus or minus 0.8gms). However, such weights are not usually perforated, so use as a later ?fishing weight is possible. Suggested date: Unknown, Early Medieval to Medieval 850-1500 Diameter (base): 16.5mm, Height: 22mm, Weight: 25.16gms

Object type: METAL WORKING DEBRIS
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Copper alloy possible metal Working debris. An object comprising a solid slightly tapered rod of minimum diameter 8.3mm at one end, a medial expansion to a sub-spherical form of diameter 19mm, and the fragmentary remains of a thin curved flange of thickness 2.9mm at the other end. The nature of the object between these ends is obscured by its having been partly melted, which would demand higher temperatures than would usually occur outside an industrial setting. Suggested date: Unknown, Roman to Post-Medieval, 43-1800. Length: 31.0mm, Weight: 35.73gms.

Possibly pottery body sherd. Crucible fragment. Dark grey hard reduced fabric with a bubbled and vitreous coating inside and out, markedly thicker on the outside, and on the ?lower part of the vessel wall. A vessel diameter of circa 180mm might be inferred - it remains uncertain where on the vessel wall this sherd derives from. This object is potentially important evidence for non ferrous metalworking or other high temperature processes such as glassworking, and may complement other industrial evidence from the same site. The sherd was kindly examined by Wallace Collyer of the North L…
